Add tomatoes, tortillas, garlic, jalapenos and chicken broth. The corn tortillas

Serve with sour cream, shredded cheese and broken tortilla chips. I've had chicken tortilla soup in the past and remember not caring for it much, but this was
very good and hearty soup, and a recipe I'll make again! You can find Ina's recipe for this Mexican Chicken Soup
here.
